History
The college was established in 1970 by two instructors who looked for a path for grown-ups in the workforce to seek after their doctoral degrees. Bernie and Rita Turner laid the basis for the college, in a joint effort with Harold "Bud" Hodgkinson, an employee at the University of California, Berkeley. One year prior, Hodgkinson had distributed "Walden U.: A Working Paper," an article that started the idea of an understudy focused college. United by a mutual vision of another sort of organization for advanced education—one that concentrated on positive social change and permitted experts to keep working while winning a degree—the teachers named their foundation "Walden University."
